The Profit star Marcus Lemonis has a once-in-a-lifetime offer for the viral Phillies home run kid: A trip to the World Series.
“I’ll send this young man and his family to the [MLB] World Series on me,” Lemonis, who is also the CEO of Camping World, Beyond Inc and Good Sam Enterprises, shared via X on Friday, September 5. “Oh and you just won an RV as well,” he added, calling the viral father “Dad of the Year.”

A father-son duo went viral over the weekend after the dad retrieved a Harrison Bader home run ball from the stands as the Phillies competed against the Miami Marlins. He cheerfully gave the ball to his son before an unidentified woman runs over and aggressively gets in the man’s face.
The woman was shouting, claiming that he took the ball out of her hands despite video evidence proving otherwise. The father, who looked startled when the woman approached, ultimately gave the woman his son’s ball and shooed her away.
The clip quickly went viral with the internet labeling the female Phillies fan a “Karen.”
The Phillies took to social media later that night to share photos of the boy receiving a signed bat from Bader himself. The Marlins — who were the home team for the series — also gifted him a “Miami goodie bag and a baseball for him to keep.”
